(S. Lynne)

Don't know where the time has gone
Must have lost it in the night.
Maybe when it was when I was holding on
Couldn't get you out of my sight.
Maybe this is trying to tell us something
Maybe we're doing something right.

Chorus:

You just Go With It
You know it feels good
Go With It
You know it feels good
You Do it, do it , do it, do it, do it, do it,
Just let go.

You never looked so beautiful to me
Maybe it's the love in your eyes
Together we fit perfect darling
Don't let another moment go by

Maybe this is the real thing baby
Maybe this is what it is.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

Kiss me darling
So we can start all over again
So we can be sure it's just not in our heads.
Hold me real close so we don't ever worry
I won't be without you again.


. . .


(S. Lynne)

I thought I was moving but my legs were broken
Words were coming out but they were left unspoken
Maybe I was dreaming in my head, in my head.

Memories were noted but I hadn't lived them
Swords were on my heart but I had long forgived them
Funny how the hurtful voices seem to slip away.

Where Am I Now
I don't know how
I wound up in this place again.
How Am I now
Just bringing me down.
I'm looking for a house where the door is open
My body's moving fast but my spirit's broken.
Where Am I Now

Oh anytime you break and turn the cycles change
Water starts pouring down your face again
You find yourself falling in the safety net you used to call home.

When you focus all your little thoughts and troubles
To the place of clear and cloudy clouds that rumble
Standing in a field of open avenues with no place to go.

Repeat chorus

Oh my lips are set and parted but my head is empty
I try to spit it out but it won't resempt me
From feeling like it's out in the open said and done.

Telling's just talking that turns into speeches
Doesn't aid the body with the hand that reaches
Stumble in the void to find there's no one there.


. . .


(S. Lynne)

Hey Baby
What's going on with you?
Hey Baby
Want to get it on with you.
I've tried so many nights
Don't know what to do.
Hey baby
Got something to say and it is and it is

I Cry Everyday
I Cry Everyday I Cry Everyday
I Cry Everyday

Hey Darling
Got a little news for you
Don't need your sympathy
Just want a little care from you

I Cry Everyday
I Cry Everyday
I Cry Everyday
I Cry Everyday


. . .


(written by Shelby Lynne and Bill Botrell)

Your lies won't leave me alone
you used to say you loved me did ya
why'd you do me this way
it didn't have to be that way

I got your message on the phone
I hung on every single line
you told me what we had was only business
hurt me so bad I had to sit down with the sickness
oh yeah

Your lies won't leave me alone
tore the phone out the wall and it's still ringin'
wreck the room and curtains ain't hangin' baby
guitar ain't playin'

Your lies won't leave me alone
look at your picture in the room I can see you were
never happy with me baby-
all my uncertainty is easy to see
how you're killin' me, cause

I got those bills you would not pay
the cost of our love is way too high and I just keep on
payin' baby
why'd you say you loved me - walk around and carry on,
hurting 'bout your love is gone, the song I sing is sad
and long, wonder if you are alone,
I don't know if I belong


. . .


(Tony Joe White)

Before you go and walk out on me
Take a look around and tell me what you see.
Cause here I stand like an open book
Is there something here you might have overlooked.

And it would be a shame if you leave
And find that freedom ain't what you thought it would be.

The years we had were not all bad
In fact I know the good outweighed the bad.
And now you say that you've grown tired
And you want to be by yourself a while.

It would be a shame if you go
And find that freedom was a long time ago

I know you can't stand for chains to bind you
But they just keep on driving us apart.
And you could go where I would never find you
But could you go far enough to get away from you're heart.

So one more time for old times sake
Come and lay your head upon my chest.
Please don't throw this moment away.
We can forget the bad and take the best.

And if you don't have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time for old times sake.
And if you don't have nothing left to say

. . .


(Shelby Lynne)

Ramble with an overtone
This queen lives without a drone
Searching lights they lead me home
I won't die alone.

Gamble with your old wife's money
You might need to call her honey
Nights are black and days are sunny
I won't die alone.

Hot white cake and ice cold coffee
Get this creepy monkey off me
Stomp and rant but do it softly
I won't die alone.

Wait and watch and paint and powder
Turn the noise up make it louder
I can't leave here as a coward
I won't die alone.

Wipe your head and be not sweaty
This room feels a little heavy
I ain't worried I am ready
I won't die alone.

It's raining on my love parade
Look at what a mess I made
It's all a joke a big charade
I won't die alone.

This is easy this is gravy
I feel like a little baby
This feels like a natural fade
I won't die alone

. . .


(Shelby Lynne)

Me, myself and I
You yourself and we
Enough of you enough of me
Who are you who are we
Me myself, you yourself
You and we.

Me myself and I
You, yourself and we
Enough of you enough of me
Who are you who are we
Me myself you yourself
You and we.

Underneath the paper sky we are under you and I
Inescapably in-captured with the world and ever after
Aaaaaahhh, ahhh, ahhhhhhh

Me myself and I
You yourself and we
Enough of you enough of me
Who are you who are we
Me myself you yourself

. . .


(Shelby Lynne)

Got some news today from the radio man
He spoke the words softly and as somber as he can
The world stood still and the sky opened up
made my way to fill up my coffee cup.
Then it occurred to me as the daylight sky shone blue
Today's the day that
Johnny met June.

He waited a while he knew that he would
He was gonna hang around here for as long a he could
The days went by and hours idle passed
He was never sure just how long he would last
But there's not much love in a lonely room
Today's the day that
Johnny met June

Hey my darlin' hey my sweet
I've waited on the day that I knew we would meet.
Hey my sun, hey my moon
Today's the day that
Johnny met June.

Now were starting over it's the place that we are
You look more than pretty underneath all the stars
Love, love is a burning thing
Oh how I still love to hear you sing
And everything we ever heard about heaven is true
Today's the day that Johnny met June

. . .


(Shelby Lynne)

Can't believe the words you said your voice keeps hitting me in the head
I remember when you told me you'd never say mean things like that.
Thought you had your love in tact but I was wrong thinking things like that
Might be time to reconsider what my plans have been.

Cause when the girls walked by I could see that you never really wanted to be
with me
Out the corner of your eye you were saying hi you're never satisfied.

You don't have a heart.
You don't have a soul.
You don't see things clear and baby I'm too old
To teach you about love
Or get down on my knees
I wish you the best but it's time for me to leave
No, You don't have a heart.

Oh I used to think that you had it all you said the words and I'd start to crawl
What a fool believes is the everything.
Oh I must have had a head made out of wood wasn't thinking with my brain like I
know I should.
My heart led the way but I'm not ashamed.

Cause when a woman's blind to all the heartaches she never knows the price she's
gonna have to pay
You stole my heart and took my pride but I'll survive and come out on the other
side.

Chorus

Oh we all reap what we all sow your times coming you don't even know.
It's worth the wait to watch you burn
I'm front row center as the tables turn.


. . .



Engines rev and trumpets roar
I don't hear your voice no more
And living isn't worth the fear of dying
Wrapped up package torn up clothes
Empty days and deep dark holes
The only thing that keeps a man from crying

Oh if I don't get you back I'll fall upon a railroad track
And let the steel wheels cut right through my bones
Oh if I don't get you back I'll cover up my bloody tracks
With sorrow hopes and hide my dying pride
Oh cause I'm alive

Whispers in a losers dream
Holding on to not a thing
Cause these arms now are paralyzed without you to hold
Bold with crazy have no fear
Children cry and then I hear
The message my lies tell me in my dreams

Oh if I don't get you back I'll fall upon a railroad track
And let the steel wheels cut right through my bones
Oh if I don't get you back I'll cover up my bloody tracks
With sorrow hopes and hide my dying pride
Oh cause I'm alive

Maybe if I caught the rain
In pails that filter out the pain
I'd realize why you had to go
Days of lightning show the way
And night time creeps and holds at bay
The missing you, the mean, the cold, the ugly

Oh if I don't get you back I'll fall upon a railroad track
And let the steel wheels cut right through my bones
Oh if I don't get you back I'll cover up my bloody tracks
With sorrow hopes and hide my dying pride

. . .


(Shelby Lynne)

Sleep. Come on in.
I would like for you to spend the night with me.
Sleep. Where you been.
I have surely missed you since you've been gone.
I have walked the dirt and seen the clouds in the sky and
seen them different in the daytime.
It hurts my eyes to close them cause they only close to blink away the tears
that I cry.

Sleep. Be my friend.
I could use a close one to remind me how to live again.
Sleep. Make it end.
Let me rest and lie beside my tired old bones and hold me.
Sing to me a lullaby on hopes of shutting down these eyes and close out the
world.
Force me to dream so I'll know I've slept and shelter me from daylights creeping
fingers.

Sleep. Please appear.
Show to me your face and tell me it's ok to rest.
Sleep. Help me try,
To put my body down on pillows made out of my Mama's womb.
Satisfy my eagerness for comfort in this time of worry let me let it go.
When I'm sure the lights are out and sandman throws himself about
I'll trust you again.

Sleep. Say my prayers.
Asking for a place that looks like all the nighttime fantasies.
Sleep. Are you here?

. . .


I hear, a voice say "Don't be so blind"
It's telling me all these things
That you would probably hide
Am I, your one and only desire
Am I the reason you breathe
Or am I the reason you cry?

Always, always, always, always, always, always,
I just can't live without you...

I love you
I hate you
I can't get around you.
I breathe you
I taste you
I can't live without you.
I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude,
I guess that I'm out the door
And now I'm done with you.

(Done with you, done with you, done with you, done with you, done with you)

I feel, like you don't want me around
I guess I'll pack all my things
I guess I'll see you around
It's all, been bottled up until now
As I walk out your door
All I can hear is the sound

Always, always, always, always, always, always,
I just can't live without you...

I love you
I hate you
I can't get around you.
I breathe you
I taste you
I can't live without you.
I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude,
I guess that I'm out the door
And now I'm done with you.

I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you.

I left my head around your heart,
Why would you tear my world apart?

Always, always, always, always.

I see, the blood all over your hands
Does it make you feel, more like a man
Was it all, just a part of your plan
The pistol's shakin' in my hands
And all I hear is the sound.

I love you
I hate you
I can't live around you.
I breathe you
I taste you
I can't live without you.
I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude,
I guess that i'm out the door
And now i'm done with you.

I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you.
I love you
I hate you
I can't live without you.
I just can't take anymore
This life of solitude,
I pick myself off the floor,
And now i'm done with you.

Always
Always
Always.
